36 Weeks


How far along: 36 Weeks

Sleep: Yeah, I still don't sleep.

Best Moment of the Week: Confirming that as long as all goes according to plan, we'll be meeting this little girl at 39 weeks, or sooner if she chooses.

Movement: She's still trying to roll around in there. Silly girl!

Labor Signs: At my appointment last week I was 50% effaced and 1 cm dilated. I've been having lots of real contractions, they're just not regular enough yet.

Belly Button: Still out. It's a lovely little snooze button.

What I Miss: Drinking water without getting heartburn and being able to play with John on the floor.

What I'm Looking Forward to: Getting settled in our new place. We still have SO much to unpack.

35 Weeks


How far along: 35 Weeks

Sleep: I wish. Between her middle of the night hiccups, waking up because I'm way too hot, and getting up to go to the bathroom oh, once every hour, I no longer sleep.

Best Moment of the Week: Another appointment where I hear that she is absolutely perfect.

Movement: She moves and moves and moves. I'm not sure that she sleeps!

Labor Signs: None. Just normal 35 weeks aches and pains. Contractions are still most likely getting us nowhere closer to labor.

Belly Button: Out, out, out. It just suddenly popped at around 33 weeks. I'm kind of excited about it, honestly!

What I Miss: Eating and cold weather!

What I'm Looking Forward to: Getting settled in our new place. We still have SO much to unpack.
